She's in the conversation. Whose been more successful than her the last 15 years? She's had some serious longevity. Been in the game since the late 90s.
She has sold over 118 million records as a solo artist,[9][10] and a further 60 million with Destiny's Child,[11][12] making her one of the best-selling music artists of all time.[13][14] She has won 20 Grammy Awards and is the most nominated woman in the award's history. The Recording Industry Association of Americarecognized her as the Top Certified Artist in America during the 2000s decade.[15][16] In 2009, Billboardnamed her the Top Radio Songs Artist of the Decade,[17] the Top Female Artist of the 2000s and their Artist of the Millennium in 2011.[18][19]Timelisted her among the 100 most influential people in the world in 2013 and 2014. Forbes magazine also listed her as the most powerful female musician of 2015.[20]

Beyoncé - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia


:usure:

these two are killing beyonce in career album sales (started the same time beyonce did with destiny's child):
Top Selling Music Artists of All Time – Statistic Brain
Gold & Platinum - RIAA (<<<Straight from the RIAA, they're lying?)

now if you cats wanna get all off into what she sold in XYZ weather, over in bolivia, australia, during the world series, have at it...but at the end of the day, as a solo artist, her career sales are nowhere near these two, and they all started around the same time.

and this is 2016...we're clearly in the Adele era...but keep thinking that beyonce is the greatest selling artist of all time when no chart says this anywhere on planet earth :sas2:

the argument was that she is the most successful artist of the past 15 years when that ain't anywhere near true.

eminem was the top selling artist of the whole decade of 2000's and again, adele's numbers will shock you.

we're on the internet, look it up :win:

It's funny that people will criticize Beyonce for making songs like this. Katy Perry, Miley, etc. make turn-up songs and people don't say "they have to do that type of music to stay on". Both of them are white and still only sell a fraction of what Adele does sales wise.

Beyonce makes these types of songs because she understands it will create conversations and get people talking. If she dropped a soulful ballad, she'd still have people saying she makes soul-less music, but it wouldn't receive a fraction of the views. Beyonce breaks through cultures and genders because she's built a name for herself that allows her to do so. She can perform at Presidential Inagurations and a Superbowl. Can't say the same for Adele.
yeaaahhh right... you compare Beyonce to Miley and Perry

did yall just heard of Beyonce when drop drunk in love/ W run the world
